A Brief History of Masturbation
Masturbation is normal, healthy, and universal, but it hasn't always been seen that way. Throughout history, the way we look at this basic human activity has changed a lot. Here, in honor of Masturbation Month, (pun intended) are some of the highlights, and lowlights, in masturbation history.

Don't Put Those Eggs in Your Basket: Please Don't Put That Up There - Part Four
Last year about this time, I did a series of posts about ridiculous things people were advising others to put in their vaginas - from steam, cannabis laced tampons, to teeny tiny tea bags. It seemed like a trend to find new and exciting, and potentially very unsanitary and dangerous, things to put inside you.
I'd like to say this trend has died down but it hasn't. It seems we just can't get away from people who want to tell us that our vaginas are a problem and they have a solution.
What's the latest thing you're supposed to stuff up inside you? Jade eggs.
For International Women's Day - Here are the Women who are My Heros
I'm finding this International Women's Day a difficult one given the situation in the USA and the current attacks on women's sexual health and freedom. It's 2017 and we still have to fight this hard for access to health care and the right to decide for ourselves what we do and do not do with our own bodies? WTF?
But this morning I thought about some of the people who are inspirations to me because they have never, and still are not taking any of this lying down.

Greatest Hits - 2016
On this last day of 2016, we thought it would be fun to look back and find out what our most popular toys were this year. Many of them are no surprise to us. If you're not familiar with them, follow the links to find out more (and pick a few of them up at a sale price for a short time).
#10 - We Vibe Tango
We Vibe quality makes this rechargeable bullet a great choice.
#9 - We Vibe Classic
We Vibe came out with many new products this year, but the original favorite shape remained a popular choice.
Sometimes the oldies are the best. The Magic Wand was one of the first modern vibrators and remains on of the most popular to this day.
#7 - Palm Power Wand Rechargeable
And sometimes an oldie needs a modern twist. This lighter but still powerful wand was a big seller this year.
#6 - We Vibe Touch
This one has been a favorite since it came out four years ago.
#5 - Mini Swan Wand
We fell in love with the Mini Swan as soon as we saw it. Considering the fact that it came in half way through the year, it's number 5 spot is impressive.
#4 - We Vibe 4+
We Vibe has been one of our best selling toys ever since it was created more than 8 years ago. This version, introduced in 2014, added smart phone control. It's remained popular through this year.
When the favorite Magic Wand got a rechargeable update, we knew it would be popular and we were right!
#2 - Soft Rain Bullet
Sometimes you just need something compact and simple. This has been a favorite choice for portable, quiet, and affordable toys.
#1 - 10-speed Teaser
It used to be that you if you wanted a good quality, silicone coated toy, you had to pay a lot of money. This gem that we found a few years ago proved that is no longer the case. The Teaser has been one of our top choices for a versatile, quiet, durable first-time toy. It's our winner for best seller this year.
